Mother's Day Card

Mother's Day is next Sunday already!!  I feel like we just got past Christmas, New Year's and Valentine's Day and here it is already the first of May!  Celebrate the Occasion and Fantabulous Cricut are both hosting challenges in honor of Mother's Day.  Below is the card I made for my mom which I am entering in both challenges.  It's a standard A2 sized card, but I scored it at 2 1/8 inches and 5 7/8 inches so that it would fold and meet in the middle.  Then I added a 3x3 square which I decorated with flowers and my sentiment.  I got the idea to cut the flowers out twice and layer them to give some extra dimension to them from Saundra over at Luv Scrapping Together.  Thanks for stopping by to check it out!

Recipe:
Cardstock from DCWV and Recollections
Daisies cut from Walk in My Garden at 1 1/2 inches
Sentiment from My Pink Stamper's 'Happiest Moments' set
